FBML IS DEAD – Have you heard that? And exactly what will it mean to lose FBML?

FBML or Facebook Mark-up Language was developed for creating applications for things such as displaying an opt-in form or a download on Facebook. That all ends in March 2011 and nobody will be able to display those TABS on their account or fan pages. So what do we do?

I have placed a sample of how the introduction of Facebook iframes can work for you by displaying a website via a TAB on my Facebook Fan Page. See the Bio box for a link to the original article on my blog to get the Facebook URL for the sample.

You have to "Like" the page to reveal the website.

To display a website you need to have your own domain or have somebody host your files for you. That's where I come in. If you choose to investigate my original article you will see how I can host your files and provide you access via FTP so you can upload those files.

If you simply wish to learn more about how I achieve displaying a website on Facebook again you can obtain the URL from the original article in the Bio Box below and the links are under the video once you click the Like button on my Facebook Fan Page You just need to have a folder on a web server for creating the application for using Facebook iFrames.

Setting up the application is a simple process made even easier with the recorded webinars that are available for all to see. Once your Facebook iFrame Application is set up you can have your site up in 10 minutes.
